Problem 20
Recognize Cause and Effect A researcher finds evidence of movement of ice within a glacier. Explain how this movement could occur.
Problem 21
Design three time-lapse illustrations to show how sand dunes move across land.
Problem 21
Think Critically The end of a valley glacier is at a lower elevation than its point of origin is. How does this help explain melting at its end while snow and ice still are accumulating where it originated?
Problem 22
Describe three ways to slow down the movement of sand dunes.
